Appointment Scheduler
You can make use of the Schedule Appointment option in Zoho Calendar if you would want to schedule meetings with various people. The Schedule Appointment feature helps you share your appointment request form with the public, so that people can fill out the form to request an appointment with you. You can embed this form on your website/blog. The visitors can check your availability using the calendar that you have embedded on the website and fill out the necessary details in the form to request a meeting.
When a person fills the appointment form embedded in your website, an email will be sent to your primary address asking you to confirm the appointment. After you have confirmed the appointment, it will be added as an event on your calendar. Also, a notification will be sent to the particular person who requested for the appointment that it has been confirmed.
